First Edition
paperback. 5.75 x 9 inches. paperback. 62 pages. First edition. A fine copy. The Smithsonian Libraries are situated in the middle of the world's largest museum complex. These libraries form a vital part of the research, exhibition, and educational enterprise of the Institution and of the world. The Smithsonian Libraries bring together 22 libraries with an online catalog of combined collections, and they exchanges publications with more than 4,000 institutions worldwide. As treatment processes have become more advanced, the Library has worked to save 1.5 million printed books and manuscripts. This exhibition is the first Smithsonian Library exhibition held outside of Washington D.C. Held in New York at the Grolier Club, the Library and the Club came together to share a mutual heritage with each location's residents and visitors. This catalogue presents books, bound in vellum and plastic, on all subjects including insects, flowers, steam engines, hot-air balloons, African art, the universe, uncharted continents, and the journeys of Buck Rogers in the 25th century. The catalogue is illustrated in black-and-white and contains chapters on journeys over land and sea, journeys of the mind, and journeys of the imagination. It also provides a brief description of the Grolier Club and the Smithsonian Institution.

Under the name An Odyssey in Print: Adventures in the Smithsonian Libraries, the same exhibition [opened].in the Smithsonian Institution Libraries Gallery.Washington, D.C., May 2002 - May 2003." - from the copyright page "Situated at the center of the world's largest museum complex. the Smithsonian Institution Libraries links the twenty-two libraries that support Smithsonian museums and research centers into one system encompassing 1.5 million books and manuscripts. The expansive collection includes many rare and unusual works equal to the celebrated art and artifacts of the Smithsonian's museums. This elegantly illustrated accompaniment to a new Smithsonian Libraries exhibition of the same name provides a three-part expedition through the collection. The first presents works such as a 1511 edition of Ptolemy's Liber geographiae (Book of geography) and the pop-up book Buck Rogers, 25th Century, featuring Buddy and Allura in "Strange Adventures in the Spider Ship" to illustrate how the world has been imagined, seen, and recorded by Europeans and Americans. The second journey explores how scientists have extended our understanding of the world, and includes a 1641 edition of Galileo's Systema cosmicum (System of the world) and a copy of Walden inscribed by Henry David Throeau to Spencer Baird, then assistant secretary of the newly founded Smithsonian Institution. The final section journeys through the imaginations of artists, architects, and book designers, presenting among many pictorially rich selections a 1535 edition of Albrecht Durer's Institutionum geometricarum (Geometric instruction) and Doxford Opposed Pistion Oil Engine, a paper-and-board pamphlet with movable pistons and levers from 1922." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
